It's been a weird week so I haven't cooked much. So in that regard, this is a very easy meal.
So this week we'll be making chickpea and sweet potatoes curry.

sounds cool
I have some mixed chickpeas and fava beans (came canned that way) would it be worth using?
>>
>>8183797
If you like fava beans, I don't see why not.

Hey, I made potato curry tonight too!
>>8183499
Looks delicious OP
>>
>>8186046
Awesome timing. And thanks!
>>
>>8183499
Looks tasty af.
It will be a lot better though if you toast your spices in a dry pan and then grind them with a mortar and pestle.
>>
>>8186335
Valid point. Though they do fry a bit with the oil and the onions.
>>
>not defreezing the peas before putting them in

>>8186348
You pretty much never thaw frozen peas before using them. They heat through in 1-2 minutes tops and thawing them first would make them turn to mush (which is fine if you're making mushy peas, but otherwise unwanted)
>>
what can I replace coconut milk with that isn't dairy or pretentious?
>>
>>8186421
Coconut allergy?
You could probably swap with for soy and/or other nut milk if those are safe for you, but you'll be missing some of the creaminess.
Or silken tofu that you've thrown in a blender, I guess.
>>
>>8186435
nah not allergic, just asking in case it's expensive or unavailable.
>>
>>8186442
A can runs me maybe 1.50$? 0.79$ on sale?
My supermarket stocks it in the baking aisle for some reason (as opposed to the aisle with the est of the asian ingredients).
It's pretty easily available (at least in the frozen lands of Canada where I am).

Ah yes, forgot, sorry. So I crumbed the zucchini flowers and piped them full of ricotta and goats cheese. Beneath them is s cauliflower steak with curry powder and seasoning.
